The answer to the question is "yes."
or possibly "no".

Inflation, if figured by 1980 standards, will be 15% this year. There can be no Volkman approach, because the economy wouldn't even generate a dead cat bounce if interest rates were raised enough to tamp down the inflation.
I darn sure would stay out of the bond market, and a lot of NASDAQ-type growth stocks. And I'm not going the cryptocurrency route.
Blue chips, gold, real estate, at least for me.

gold
Gold confuses me. It's supposed to be your classic inflation hedge. I was going to buy some earlier this year - but didn't because I couldn't see a pattern.
It's actually down from where it was in Dec/Jan.

Heh... S&P 500 just closed at an all-time high.
So did juggernaut AAPL! AAPL has around 5x gains since 12/10/2018. S&P has around 2x gains. So much for how hard it is to beat the market... if one chooses a solid stock, accepts risk, and concentrates ones money.
